Catching all exceptions with a generic catch clause may be overly broad. This can make errors harder to diagnose when exceptions are caught unintentionally.

If possible, catch only specific exception types to avoid catching unintended exceptions.

In the following example, a division by zero is incorrectly handled by catching all exceptions.

In the corrected example, division by zero is correctly handled by only catching appropriate DivideByZeroException exceptions. Moreover, arithmetic overflow is now handled separately from division by zero by explicitly catching OverflowException exceptions.
